Another cool thing about MS is: I can play games like wing- or strikecommander on a W7 machine if I want to, I might need an additional progi(dosbox), yet I can.
I'm talking about 20(!) years old software.
Downward compatibility was never a real issue, at least not for mainstream progis.
The other way around is more tricky though. The question is: Why should you put any effort in making software compatible to an obsolete OS?
Can macs do do that?
Anyway, all those arguments against MS actually lack examples. I would like to hear what kind of windows-crap trouble you ran into.
Like:

2.OS

dude, I work in an office with 2500 employees, most of them work on PCs, and the service ticket list in the IT dept at the moment has an estimated 3 weeks wait. The problem is not the machines only, but the damage users cause to them. In offices where Macs have been introduced the request for assistance has dropped of a shocking 65%! If that isn't enough, then I dunno what you need as further evidence.
